Message:	I am a very overweight 52 year old who is learning to run for the first time - and wish I had done it sooner. I've been plodding for about 18 months now and am doing FLM in April. I'll never be fast, but the plodding is helping with the weight loss and is giving me more confidence in myself in many ways. With the support of many people on here I am sure you can do it too! You may never be as fast as you were - but you are in a new age group, so you can have a new set of PBs to enjoy! I am sure once you get out there and buy yourself a new pair of shoes you will rememebr why you loved it. You don't need to be slim and sylph-like to get the feel-good hit of running. comnena djoin us! beanz ps I was 5½ stone overweight when I started - now 3 and falling.
